What to tell us when you call

Start with any immediate danger. Then share a map pin or address, road and direction of travel, nearest crossroad or landmark, vehicle type, whether it rolls and steers, and the destination you prefer. Mention damaged wheels, a trailer, a locked gate, low clearance or wheels off the pavement.

Emergency towing for common breakdown situations

Call when a vehicle will not start, has a mechanical failure, cannot be driven safely, is blocking access or needs transport after roadside help is not enough. We will confirm current availability, access and the service plan before dispatch.

Stay safer while you wait

Turn on hazard lights and move yourself away from active traffic when it is safe. Do not stand between vehicles or beside a travel lane. For an injury, crash, blocked lane, fire, leaking fuel or immediate roadway danger, call 911 first.

What affects availability and cost

Distance, vehicle size and condition, pickup access, traffic, weather, recovery needs, time required and destination can affect the service. Describe the situation accurately so the job can be evaluated before work begins.
